i have created a simple html form with one field and it post to the server side php and the value of the field is saved to a text file.
This is the parts of the code:
Html:
<form action="videorefresh.php" method="POST">
<input name="videolink" type="text" size="70" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Save Data">
</form>
php:
<?php
$open = fopen("video.txt","w+");
$txt = "video.txt";
if (isset($_POST['videolink'])) { // check if both fields are set
$fh = fopen($txt, 'a');
$txt=$_POST['videolink'];
fwrite($fh,$txt); // Write information to the file
fclose($fh); // Close the file
}
?>
here everythink works fine!
I want to drive all this through Ajax so the main html form wont refresh.
so here is the html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="./JS/videolink.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="mainform">
<div id="form">
<div>
<input name="videolink" type="text" id="videolink" size="70">
<input id="submit" type="button" value="Submit">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
And here is the js:
$(document).ready(function(){
$("#submit").click(function(){
var name = $("#videolink").val();
// Returns successful data submission message when the entered information is stored in database.
var dataString = 'videolink1='+ videolink ;
if(videolink=='')
{
alert("Please Fill All Fields");
}
else
{
// AJAX Code To Submit Form.
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "./videorefresh.php",
data: dataString,
cache: false,
success: function(result){
alert(result);
}
});
}
return false;
});
});
What i do wrong here and it doesnt work?
Please help
